For years, people have been talking about the death of the affiliate market, and I have to say: Google looks like it's making major efforts to kill it dead.

There are a lot of folks out there that I have to wonder how this will affect 'em. I mean, if aggregators get dinged, what happens to someone like FreeOnes? Or the IAFD?

changes in the seo landscape are the least of the problems of the affiliate market in the adult world. scamming the consumer and a broken economic model are the real issues there.

that said, if your business model revolves around providing no real original content or anything that otherwise proves useful to the surfer for the purpose of simply funneling traffic to someone else for pay....well, you might wanna rethink your long term strategy.

butt loads of RSS feeds, landing pages and pretty much anything that sends the surfer to something they weren't expecting is on the google hit list. and they are going after it aggressively.

as for what IS working for SEO and traffic generation....well, anyone who really knows isn't going to tell you until it becomes worthless....at least not for free.

i've prided myself for being self sustaining for traffic. there are three things i'll share that have always been true. first off, by the time everyone else has figured out what you've been doing, you best have your next plan rolled out. two, learn to love data. data is your friend. build, experiment, tweak and analyze. and finally, don't share recipes.

in the link above, there is one very solid truth about what to do for SEO RIGHT NOW. and that is provide a nice clean website with original very desirable content. do that and the seo will work itself out as THAT is exactly what both google and bing are trying to tune to target.
